摘 要:Aims: To compare optotype acuities and re operation rates in children correct ed with a contact lens (CL) compared with an intraocular lens (IOL) following un ilateral cataract extraction during infancy in a non randomised, retrospective case series. Methods: 25 infants with a unilateral congenital cataract underwent cataract surgery with (IOL group, n=12) or without (CL group, n=13) IOL implant ation when < 7 months of age. Optotype acuities were assessed in 19 of these chi ldren at a mean age of 4.3 years (range 3.3-5.5 years). The number of re opera tions were assessed in 21 children. Results: The visual acuity results were simi lar in the two treatment groups (P=0.99); however, two of the four (50%) childr en in the IOL group compared with two of the seven (28%) children in the CL gro up undergoing surgery during the first 6 weeks of life had 20/40 or better visua l acuity. The children in the IOL group had more re operations than the childre n in the CL group (mean 1.1 v 0.36). Most of the re operations in the IOL group were membranectomies performed during the first year of life (median 8.0 months ) whereas all of the re operations in the CL group were the implantation of a s econdary IOL later in childhood (mean 2.2 years). Conclusion: Optotype acuities were similar for the children corrected with a CL compared with IOL, while the c hildren in the IOL group underwent more reoperations.Aims: To compare optotype acuities and re operation rates in children correct ed with a contact lens (CL) compared with an intraocular lens (IOL) following un ilateral cataract extraction during infancy in a non randomised, retrospective case series.
